Leak
Detection - All Leak Detectors
There
are three main leak detection categories. Depending on the size and type
of leak that you need to detect.
They
are (in order of sensitivity): Helium, Hydrogen and Pressure
Decay. Then there are sub categories in each section. Whatever your particular
leak detection size and type is required though, West Technology Systems
Limited can supply standard leak detection systems or build custom systems
made to your exact requirements and specifications.

| Helium-very
sensitive-for the smallest leaks
The
new graphical display universal Helium leak detector model ASM
142 is the end result of an innovative engineering
approach using the latest electronic technologies and vacuum
concepts.
This
rugged unit is the undeniable proof that multipurpose no longer
means compromise. The ASM 142 delivers unmatched
features such as, a roughing capacity of 10 m3/hr
with a usable helium sensitivity in the 10-11 atm.cc/s
range.
In
addition, its comprehensive bulletproof display panel loaded
with advanced features available at your fingertips delivers
a true user-friendly unit. |
Hydrogen-
medium sensitivity
Hydrogen
gas has a number of unique properties which make it an excellent
trace gas for use in leak detection and testing:
•
The lightest of all molecules
• Lowest viscosity of all gases (easy to fill, evacuate
and dissipate)
• Low background (0.5 ppm)
• Environmentally friendly and renewable
• Inexpensive
• Non flammable (when diluted 5% in Nitrogen)
• Non toxic - non corrosive
•
Has a high sensitivity down to 5x10E-7 ml/s |
Pressure
Decay - more sensitive than a bubble test.
Pressure
Rise / Pressure Decay Systems
Absolute
or differential measurement. Automatic or semi automatic operation.
Less sensitive than a Helium or Hydrogen leak detection system
but a very cost effective solution for less demanding applications.
We
can design and build to your specification or we can modify
an existing design

Helium
leak detector service & maintenance
Our
Service Centre offers a contract helium leak detection service,
able to satisfy all customer requirements from troubleshooting
right through to testing up to fully traceable quality standards,
such as:
BS EN 13185:2001, A.S.M.E. V 1983, MIL-STD-883D. |
Leak
detector hire
West
Technology Systems Limited have a Helium Leak Detector hire
service giving you the option of hiring either just a leak detector
or complete with an engineer to perform a total leak test of
your system. All our Helium leak detectors are delivered and
picked up by our own transport ensuring safe transit of the
equipment
